Bigger

Go back to the days of you childhood, for some of us it seems like yesterday
Do you remember those really lame arguments? "I'm better", "I'm stronger" , "I'm faster"
We could always find something bigger and better about ourselves and make sure everyone knew about it.
As we grow we forget about the pointless arguments but continue in our belief that we are better
But most often we find ourselves in a situation where supposed superiority fails and we break down to where can't handle things anymore
We become so enthralled with ourselves and the 'good' things about us that we put God on the shelf and move on.
I believe that one simple line, when applied, could break apart our pride, but also allow our fear of helpless times to be taken away. Simply
"God is bigger"
First off God is bigger than us. We need to dispense with the notion that there is anything particularly special or great about us. God is 'stronger, faster, better, bigger, smarter' and everything else more than us.
But more than God is bigger than me or you, He is bigger than our circumstances and fears
I'm often reminded of the Veggie Tales sing along "God is bigger than the boogie man, He's bigger than godzilla, or the monsters on TV...and He's watching out for you and me.
Such a simple song and as a kid I remember believing that God had all the monsters taken care of (which I for sure thought were real).
Today though, we find it much harder to have faith for the littlest things not to mention the big ones. I mean if our faith in God when we were children could take care of the fear of ravenous monsters, what has happened for us to believe that God will provide for us with all of our needs.
We need to get back to the GOD IS BIGGER mentality before we can try and put our faith in Him. If we don't believe that God is bigger that how will we have faith that He can get us through our tough times,
God is bigger. He's bigger than my exams, my relationships, my finances, my future, my (insert entire vocabulary here)
